[edit] Image Tagging Image:Deadmarsh la.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Deadmarsh la.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Image legality questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 15:32, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

I already explained why this image was acceptable under fair use guidelines. May need to review that explanation next time. Bsharkey 20:28, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Maybe you need to review Wikipedia:Image use policy and try posting the image again. -Nv8200p talk 04:39, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category sorting

Please refrain from editing category sorts in the manner you did at John Blue (ice hockey) [1], among other articles. People are to be listed in categories by their last names, so "Blue, John" is the correct format, not "John Blue". Thank you. Skudrafan1 03:48, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Thanks for the catch on the disambiguation issue. I have fixed it now. Skudrafan1 04:35, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
